    Err, the F1 rim isn't the only Formula style rim that TM do, they also do a generic open-wheel rim, called the 'open-wheel rim'.

    It's actually both cheaper and better built than the F1 rim.

    The new rim seems to be a McLaren GT3.

    God I would kill for one of those. I’m looking at the Acelith McLaren faceplate for my PlayStation rim.

    The Open Wheel rim is a little too small for my taste so I might be interested in this if it has a larger diameter and more buttons.

    And doesn't have the side wheels like the F1 rim, making it useless.

    I hope that this new F1 wheel is supported by 300 serie in order to use it with Quick release. I already have the F1 add on but I will buy another one in case of Quick release.
